Enjoying our Black Locusts

Re: Enjoying our Black Locusts

Enjoying ours too! I am ashamed to admit I never noticed these trees until this year, studying the list of forage for bees in my areas - this is a major source for Wisconsin bees, and I never knew it existed! And its everywhere - beekeeping sure is educational.

It is easy to miss as it doesn't always bloom. This is the first time it has bloomed around here since Hurricane Irene.

Re: Enjoying our Black Locusts

Our locust just starting to bloom here last 2 days. Unfortunately we are getting pounded with rain tonight. Hope it doesn't completely ruin the bloom this year. Last year was completely washed out with a week of rain.
